Since you were 2, then?

I started with gas-permeable lenses back in 1992 - needed the gps due to the nature of my job at the time - and stuck with them until earlier this year. Got used to then really quickly in just a couple of days.

Switched to monthly disposables about 4 months ago and these are even better. Much less fuss (only one solution bottle) and there's something kinda nice about getting a new pair out the packet at the start of each month.

I have glasses when pottering about the house at the end of the day but otherwise wear the lenses. Couldn't imagine life without 'em

The lenses and solutions cost me £15pm and I get three months supply from the opticians. The £15pm also includes check-ups and an annual eye test, so good value in my view. Friends who have the "daily disposables" seem to like them too.
